‘Extreme fear’ grips Bitcoin price, but analysts point to signs of a potential reversal

The cryptocurrency market settled into a holding pattern on May 25 after traders opted to sit on the sidelines ahead of the midday Federal Open Market Committee (FOMC) meeting, where the Federal Reserve signaled that it intends to continue on its path of raising interest rates.
